on the one hand, Republicans gut federal agencies… but on the other they want to know why infrastructure is falling apart, and why corporations are running shoddy equipment that puts everyone in danger… trains crashing because of lack of regulation… planes falling apart because of lack of regulation… ships crashing into bridges because of lack of regulation and oversight… it’s pretty simple, you fucking chimps…
No, they absolutely know those things. Capitalism without regulation is not a risk to them. Collapse of infrastructure and the frustration of the legitimate processes of government are 100% the plan. While some of them play idiots on TV, they know exactly what they are doing. They are just bad at it. They aren’t really attracting the best and the brightest to their cause.
Every regular person needs to learn about negative externalities. I’m not even asking for people to learn more socialist principles which I wouldn’t mind; we’d be in much better shape if people just understood basic capitalist economic principles.

They don’t understand that capitalism without regulation is a public risk, nor that infrastructure and services are deeply intertwined.

And when it all crumbles it can be sold to third parties and the dream of privatizing every single aspect of the country can be complete.
Sounds like the USA was just a big exit scam
